Bordeaux vs Sochaux betting tips 6 October Ligue 1: "Bordeaux continued to disappoint in the Europa League as the team lost their second round game at home against Maccabi Tel Aviv 1:2, being already in a very difficult situation. After two defeats in first two rounds, it seems that the team won’t be able to obtain a ticket for the further phase of Europa League and can now slowly turn their attention to domestic duties only."
Despite the fact that goal from Jussie in the third minute of repetition brought Bordeaux into a 1:0 lead, they were unable to maintain the lead and have conceded two goals in last twenty minutes of the game, going down to a very competitive and fighting team like Maccabi were on Thursday night. As for the domestic league, Bordeaux is currently on a five matches run without a victory, having overall seven matches without three pointer in all competitions. Poor form brought them to the 16th position, being actually tied up with Lorient, team that is on first relegating position now. Their target for this game is surely a three pointer, but the home side will have to do it without three important players as defensive midfielder Poko (6/0) and midfielders Sertic (2/1) and Faubert (2/0) are ruled out with injuries.
Sochaux, on the other side, is coming into this game from a 2:0 victory over Valenciennes last weekend at home. It was their first victory in the new season and it came in the right moment as the players are surely now feeling much more relaxed after it and will be looking to build up on that performance and bring a point when visiting out of form Bordeaux.
As said, first victory in the season for Sochaux came after their run of seven matches without victory, while the hosts used great start in the game netting two goals in 12th and 18th minute, while the guests from Valenciennes had much more of the ball possession till the rest of the game, but couldn’t convert their possession into real goalscoring chances. Eight rounds into the new season, Sochaux is second from the bottom with only one point earned away from home out of four matches and no doubt that they will be more than happy with a point earned from this game. Visitors have no fresh injury worries as they only miss left back Roussillon (1/0) and defensive midfielder Traore (didn’t participate yet in the new season), both already counted as long term absences.
Bordeaux have drawn their last 3 matches in Ligue 1.
There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Bordeaux’s last four home games in Ligue 1.
Bordeaux are undefeated in twelve of their last thirteen matches against Sochaux in all competitions.
Even though Bordeaux is in terrible form at the moment, they still remain favorites against poor away from home Sochaux. However, the game isn’t expected to be open at all, with both teams having terrible problems scoring goals all season long.
Bet: Under 2.5 goals
